Trophy days at Celtic Park are usually quite the occasion, but Saturday’s went above and beyond.

Celtic come from behind twice to beat St Mirren on trophy dayFirst, the game. On a day of 'dead-rubbers' in Premiership's top-six finale, we were treated to 13 goals across three matches - five of which came at Celtic Park.

Manager Brendan Rodgers said the victory was "a great way to celebrate" a 12th top-flight title in 13 seasons. "You never get tired of success. This is why you play football and there's not a more satisfying feeling than lifting that trophy above your head."There were some big puffs of the cheeks and looks of disbelief when the retiring goalkeeper watched an impressive fan tifo unfurl behind him at the start of the second half.

Addressing the Celtic support post-match, Hart said: "You guys are absolutely phenomenal. You've made me feel so special. Thank you so much for having me."
